Whoa! I’m giving away an All-Clad Griddle!

WINNER UPDATE! I LOVED hearing what you all want for the holidays. I enjoyed reading every one, as some of them were humble and cute, and some where just downright hilarious. Without further adieu, the winner is:

Jen who said, “Great Giveaway–that griddle would be awesome. So far on my Christmas list I have a new laptop, a couple cookbooks, and a new black boots.”

Go Jen! Thanks all for entering. Have a cute week!xo

——————————————-

All-Clad is like Prada…but for your kitchen.

Yeah, it’s fancy and expensive. BUT worth it. Whenever I buy expensive shoes or bags, I just tell myself that they’re such great quality that I’ll be able to give them to my future daughter.

Who knows if that’s true, but I do suggest telling yourself that. It makes the sting of anything remotely expensive feel a little less tingly.

I do this same thing with fancy cookware. It’s a good technique. I have a gorgeous set of All-Clad cookware in my kitchen, that I surprisingly found on Craigslist from some dude who was gifted the set from his mom. He couldn’t pay rent, and didn’t cook so he was selling it brand new, never used at more than half price.

And then since I was scared to meet him at Starbucks, because there was a possibility of him being a murderer, I dragged a friend of mine with me and they both realized they were from the same small town outside Boston. Small world.

LA is a weird place. You can buy All-Clad in a Starbucks at half price.

Anyway, basically I’m saying that All-Clad can last you a really long time and the quality is pretty awesome. So that’s why when CSN Stores contacted me about doing a giveaway, I picked this griddle. And because I’m a long admirer of pancakes. Obviously.

Love,love, love this griddle. I have been eyeing and electric one , but this one looks much nicer! I would also like a new camera ( a small purse sized one) because I don’t take enough pictures for my blog because mine is so big that I never have it with me!

I have been reading your blog and facebook page for a few weeks now. I am following you on Twitter. I love the recipes and the griddle pan looks great. I could make a lot of breakfast for dinner meals.

I love this griddle. I have been looking for something to cook my family’s pancakes on that will cook more than the current electric griddle I use that was a wedding gift 16 years ago! For Christmas, I am hoping for Fiesta ware dishes!!

Spending time with my family is usually good enough for me. 🙂 There are a few things I want, of course, just not sure I need them or have room for them… lol A food processor would be nice, but it would have to be small! The griddle would be a good replacement for the one I have. I love that it is round!

I can’t really think of one thing I want for Christmas! Man, I am a lucky woman. I am so glad I found your site again though. I’ve been looking for you guys for a few weeks now after forgetting the name! Love it;)

I just discovered your site and I am in love with it – and this griddle! I’m about to get married, just bought a new home, and we aren’t registering anywhere. Is it too much to ask for this as a wedding gift? 🙂

I know it’s horribly crass to say, but for Christmas I want spending money. My cousin is getting married in Hawaii in January and I’d like to be able to afford to do things on the trip. Though, if people gave me bakeware of any sort, I wouldn’t say no!

It’s not too early for me! I have my Christmas list right here and it’s all about FOOD! Ready?
I want….Nigella’s new cookbook Kitchen, Tessa Kiros cookbooks Apples for Jam and Falling Cloudberries, and maybe one from Bill Granger. I also want a 10″ tart pan, nesting doll measuring cups (so cute!) and a kitchen scale. I’ve heard it’s the best way to measure! There’s more but I’ll stop there….. 😉

It’s funny because in the past couple days I already started thinking about what I want from Christmas. I’m thinking those fancy cameras at Urban Outfitters would be awesome! 🙂
I already follow you on twitter!
And now I’m liking you on fb.

I’m a pancake-oholic, and I would love to have this pan. For Christmas, I’m asking for a DSLR…like I’ve asked for the past 2 years. Things like kitchen renovations and new appliances got in the way this year, so I’m still hoping we get it.

I would like my amazing manfriend to be able to get a job in Seattle (where I currently live. he currently lives in LA)Not only so that we can at least live in the same city, but because he’s not enjoying/being appreciated at his current job and it kills me to see him unhappy. That is all. 🙂

I want to have my kitchen completely remodelled with new cabinetry, appliances, cookware, serveware and pretty much everything else.
What?
I’m asking too much you say?
Well then, I’ll settle for a good quality dutch oven, some nice crips white, square serveware, or a gift card to some fabulous store, say CSN for example! 😉

Somehow I got distracted, and never entered the CSN giveaway (damn adult onset ADD). but ooooh, I actually have a cast iron griddle on my kitchen wish list, so I can make the perfect maple bacon pancakes. And all I want for christmas is my two front teeth and a new job. seriously. on to facebook I gooooo!

I like you everywhere- and more so, I’m pretty damned impressed with your success. I mean, you got a PW shoutout. That woman is legend. And I’m pretty sure for christmas I want a bread machine. Or a food processor. Or a food dehydrator. And that has nothing to do with this being a cooking blog.

I want a half priced set of All-Clad for Christmas. And I want to get it from a guy that I meat on Craig’s List who will end up potentially being my future husband. He must be beautiful. I’m not sure if the guy YOU bought these from was beautiful, but this is my christmas wish.

a “nook” — i LOVE to read & LOVE having books around (my husband and I have too many books and not enough space) – and I wouldn’t trade the books we have for anything–we’ve got a pretty awesome collection – BUT, it’s hard taking lots and lots of books on vacation. We travel light (backpacks only, bc of luggage fees) .. so i have to be picky w/ the books i can bring! any kind of e-reader would be nice! (:

All i want for Christmas is to be able to be home everyday by at least 5:30pm, instead of 8:00pm, to cook a nice dinner for my family and us actually sit down together in one spot and have conversations. Yes, that would be nice.

Good morning and happy soon to be birthday! I’m torn between a really good enamel dutch oven or a bread machine for Christmas. I told my husband to wait until the last minute before buying anything since I can’t make up my mind.

I liked you on Facebook last week, and for Christmas I want to close on a new home so I can have room for all my kitchen gadgets! (An All-Clad griddle would certainly be my newest showpiece… and get my hubby in the kitchen to whip up his famous vanilla blueberry pancakes!) 🙂

Well, last year I got a kitchenaid stand mixer, so I’m not sure what can top that. This year I am dying for all of the fancy little essentials that are completely unnecessary but are so super fun. Such as: A melon baller, a mini cream-whipper, egg fry molds, and I’m not going to lie… I’ve been totally eyeing a williams sonoma deep fryer.

I want a new bicycle! Mine is completely worthless…my husband and I go biking and I have to pedal three times as much as he does because my bike is junk. I may bite the bullet and just buy one myself in a few weeks though…. 🙂

I’m Jewish, but my birthday is on Christmas Day, so I do celebrate with all my Christian friends. I want … I want … I want … to be able to afford extensive dental work on a 13-year-old American Eskimo that I just rescued and adopted. Poor Eskie’s human is ill, went to assisted living, and the family was going to put the Eskie in a shelter.

I’ve been reading so many hip foodie blogs and design/photo blogs that now I’m yearning for a Canon Eos with fancy extra flash to drive everyone around me nuts with taking pictures all the time. I also want to not live in a one bedroom with my two kids and husband, but that is on the really big items list!

I just found your blog and have just begun to read through it, it’s lovely and I hope I’ll follow a few of your autumn recipes…For the holidays there are so many things I want and need….I’m gonna go with a new yoga mat and hot yoga towel for those frigid days when all I want to do is downward dog in a sweaty room! Hope to cook up some of your recipes soon!
